I have the following in /etc/fstab on my dreamcast:
/.swap                  none            swap    sw      0 0

# ls -l /.swap
-rw-------  1 root  wheel  67108864 Sep  4 00:29 .swap

So I just export the dreamcast / normally and it just works for swap.
I don't see any need for any other arrangement personally.
